Types of Temporary Repairs
Taking Care of the Unexpected
If You Have a Flat Tire
Plug the hole:
Inflate the tire:
Using a puncture-repairing agent can damage the TPMS sensors, causing the
TPMS indicator to turn on. Have you motorcycle checked by your Honda
dealer as soon as possible.
Use caution to not damage the TPMS sensor if an internal plug patch must be
used to repair the tire. If you have a tire prof essionally repaired at a non-
Honda f acility, we recommend that you have the work checked by your Honda
dealer. TPMS wheels require special handling when changing the tire. Failure
to f ollow the proper tire replacement procedure can result in damage to the
TPMS sensor.
Due to the uncertainty of any temporary repair, you should ride slowly (not over
30 mph, 50 km/h) and carefully (preferably without a passenger or cargo) until
the tire is replaced or permanently repaired. Stop frequently and check the air
pressure. If the tire is losing pressure, it may be unsafe to continue riding. As the
tire gets low, it will affect the handling of your motorcycle (especially with a
passenger and cargo), and it may overheat and blow out.
The following types of temporary repairs generally require a source of air to
inflate the tire. Possible sources include CO cartridges or cans of compressed
air designed to inflate a tire.
The idea here is to do something to temporarily stop the leak.
If you have a tubeless tire repair kit, you can pull out the nail and try inserting
an external plug in the puncture. Follow the instructions that came with the
repair kit and be sure to inflate the tire to the correct pressure.
Tubeless tires have some self-sealing ability if they are
punctured and the result is usually just a slow leak. If this is the case, you can
try inflating the tire to see if it will hold air pressure. If you can see a nail or
other object embedded in the tire tread, do not remove it at this time.
